'Undivided' came about following a year of travel for Morley, who brought back rhythms and melodies from the Sahara and Morocco. Her video for "Wild Bird" debuted on National Geographic Music, which called it "a dazzling, sun-drenched voyage to the Sahara desert.

She also performed as part of TEDxWomen in December, alongside Dr. Mehmet Oz, Jane Fonda, Gloria Steinem. View her performance here.

The Huffington Post wrote, "She has the uncanny ability to make you feel good about yourself and life without you realizing that you're feeling good about these things. It's just the instantaneous contact that happens inside your headphones... The keyword here is community, something Morley is expert at creating, be it through her hospice work or teaching yoga in prisons. Yet none of her music is sacrificed for a message... In Morley, all factors are stitched together beautifully, undivided and complete." Read the complete review and view the "Be The One" video here.

NYC SINGER-SONGWRITER MORLEY'S POWERFUL "WILD BIRD" SHOT IN THE SAHARA DESERT WITH STILL BILL'S DIRECTOR, DAMANI BAKER

PERFORMING AT DROM IN NYC TONIGHT NEW ALBUM 'UNDIVIDED' OUT APRIL 3

NYC singer-songwriter Morley -- whom the New York Times said, "embodies modern-day New York femininity in all its multicultural finesse" – has drawn on her experience teaching teens from international conflict zones for the stunning new song "Wild Bird," which she first debuted live at the Blue Note. Her vocals are vulnerable and riveting on the plaintive song. She has also made a stunning new video shot on location in the Sahara Desert by Damani Baker ("Still Bill"), which premiered this week on National Geographic Music.

Morley has been a conflict resolution and dialogue facilitator for the organization Face to Face | Faith to Faith for three years. Face to Face/Faith to Faith brings teenagers from the United States, Northern Ireland, Palestine, Israel and South Africa together for summer intensive workshops. She says, "I've witnessed true alchemy with the students… their willingness to open doors that have been boarded up by the generations, and their capacity to stand in a place of possibility, amazes and inspires me. By the end of the summer intensive they are weeping as they say goodbye. The friendships that form at Face to Face | Faith to Faith change their entire emotional systems, and possibly change the course of history."

One of the ways in which she teaches is through songwriting. She says, "The goal is to encourage the students to communicate their life experience by evoking their universal emotions through music. I facilitate their collaboration with each other on the songs that they write, sharing their rhythms and harmonies suspends issues of borders, religion and race and reveals their humanity and interconnectedness. This process allows them to linger in the sacred space music can provide."

She reflects, "'Wild Bird' is a confessional song about finding a safe place to land in the world and in the heart. A look at how universal that search is and how many hearts and lives are lost. At times it has felt like I have had to be a soldier and fight to find it, a very lonely struggle but ultimately it has been within me all along...that safe space that no one and no physical place can be for me, even in the midst of emotional or political turbulence."

Morley is joined on 'Undivided' (out April 3) by a stellar cast of musicians including Joan Wasser (Joan As Police Woman), Raúl Midón, Dave Eggar, and the legendary David Amram (Thelonious Monk, Allen Ginsberg).

Since 2001, Face to Face | Faith to Faith has brought together hundreds of Christian, Jewish and Muslim teenagers from Northern Ireland, the Middle East, South Africa, and the U.S. to develop a new generation of leaders able to negotiate a multifaith global society.
